Livid allows customizable hosting of videos including your own branding and options for removing Livid branding. Livid does not force advertising on any videos \& this is amazing\! Everything that anyone would need for video hosting seems to be included and very generous storage space. > > **Cons**: I haven't found anything yet that I don't like about Livid. There are a few items on their roadmap that other users have suggested that they already have in que to be completed. They are very responsive to suggestions and feedback from those using Livid. > > Overall, we plan to use Livid for our business as long as Livid exists. We have more storage than we will ever use. We love the customization of the player and ability to add our own branding. We love that we can use this to host videos for our websites, forms, blog, etc. We also love the responsiveness from Support for Livid if ever needed and that they take suggestions and feedback from the public to help improve their products. Best value that we have found and we've tried vimeo, wistia, youtube, adilo, etc. I find some of those very comparable in offerings but still don't compare to the ease of use of Livid's UI and affordability. ----- ### "Great Value, No Drop in Quality" — 5.0/5 > **Arthur** | *21 September 2026* | Motion Pictures & Film | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great value for the money. I moved over from Vimeo and I'm getting the same video quality and reliable playback for a fraction of what I was paying before. It's also easy to use, I didn't need to relearn anything to get my videos hosted and shared with clients. > > **Cons**: The only thing I'd like to see is a bit more in the way of built in guides or tutorials for some of the less common settings, though it hasn't been a real problem for how I use it day to day. > > I run a media preservation business, so I'm constantly uploading and sharing video content for clients. Switching from Vimeo to Livid cut my costs significantly without any drop in quality or reliability. For a small business, that combination of value and performance has made it an easy platform to stick with. ----- ### "Clean and Simple for Client Videos, but Needs Direct Video Links" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *10 September 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like how clean and simple it is to use. It works well in most situations when I’m managing videos for client sites, and it keeps the process straightforward. > > **Cons**: I’d like to be able to get a direct video link so I can use the video as a section background. As a web designer, that's a pretty common use case for me and it's disappointing to need a separate tool for it. > > It feels clean and simple to use. The main problem it solves for me is having an easy way to store embedded client videos without youtube. ----- ### "Get Livid...in a Good Way. A Nice Alternative to Vimeo" — 5.0/5 > **Dr. John** | *10 September 2026* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It allowed me to replace another video storage vendor (Vimeo) with one that provides the same quality services, but at a substantial savings. > > **Cons**: Transferring my videos from Vimeo was a bit time-consuming; however, Livid provided a software transfer tool that helped me automate the process rather than having to move more than 300 videos manually. There was some one-time edits to existing learning courses that needed to have video links updated, but once that was completed, there was no negative impact to my workflow. > > The setup was easy, and the user interface is functional and practical. The migration process to move videos from another service was aided by a software tool (provided with my purchase) that automated much of that process. To date, I have no real complaints with Livid, nor have my customers, and it seems to meet my needs. ----- ### "A fast, intuitive, beautifully branded video platform that genuinely makes hosting fun\!" — 5.0/5 > **Craig** | *11 September 2026* | Graphic Design Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Livid is one of the most intuitive and enjoyable video platforms I’ve ever used. The interface is slick, fast, and thoughtfully designed, making it incredibly easy to upload, organize, and manage videos. Processing times are quick, and I love that I can replace a video without changing the shareable URL, which is a huge convenience for maintaining embeds across multiple websites. Branding is where Livid truly shines. I can customize each video with unique colors, player controls, poster images, and logos, and I’m not restricted to a single brand profile. Since my business operates multiple brands, being able to manage everything under one account while still giving each video its own tailored appearance is a massive advantage. I also appreciate the domain‑restriction feature for secure playback, the generous and affordable pricing, and the fact that storage only counts against the original uploaded file (not the automatically generated bit-rate variations. Livid fixed this quickly after other users provided this feedback, which shows how responsive the team is). Organizing videos is simple, folder management is smooth, and I like having the option to upload or generate transcripts when needed. > > **Cons**: My dislikes are more like suggestions for future enhancements. It would be helpful to have color‑coding or tagging for folders and videos to improve internal organization and quickly convey status (pending, approved, etc.). I’d also love the ability to manually assign a custom graphic or logo to a folder for better visual identification. Analytics could be expanded so I can view performance across groups of videos instead of checking each one individually. And while not a true dislike, I’d be excited to see integrations or interactive features in the future. Things like CTAs, hotspots, or gated content similar to what some WordPress plugins offer (Look to FluentPlayer for example). > > Livid gives me a reliable, ad‑free, brand‑consistent way to host and embed videos across all my websites and client projects. Every player looks professional, matches the brand it belongs to, and avoids the distractions and limitations of third‑party platforms. It has genuinely streamlined my workflow and made video hosting something I actually enjoy... which is not something I ever expected to say. Livid has become one of the most valuable purchases I’ve made for my business because it saves time, reduces friction, and elevates the quality of our video presentation across the board. Thank you\!
